Movies
We've had the new Blockbuster Total Access program for a month now. I've got to say it's a good success.
If a person enjoys movies at home along with a penchant for older flicks and offbeat titles, it would be hard to beat what BB offers. Because they're in a winner take all fight with Netflix the customer really gets his or her money's worth. For $17.99 I get three movies out at atime and can take the ones I've seen into the nearest BB outlet to use as coupons for free rentals, basically turning the account into six movies out at one time. Also when you bring the used title in they scan it to send the next one in your queue from the warehouse.
Doing it this way lets you rent the new flicks from the store while selecting old and obscure ones from their warehouse. We saw 19 movies in the first month this way. Less than one dollar a shot. Netflix offers a good service too with a huge library and a sharp website. I wish them well, but adios.

Saw a comment of yours on The Heretik, and just thought I'd drop by to say, "Hi." I loved "~you's~" opinion. ; )
Thank you Laurie.
